"Some of you will ridicule me for that. I don't care. I would ask for prayers from the Christians among us."

I won't, and I will pray for you...

but I just think that Africa and a lot of places are just lost causes....

if a culture doesn't have respect for their fellow human beings or exhibit any empathy how can they ever be civilized...let alone worhips God....

to kill children and pregnant women and then carve them up to eat them?.....there is no going back with people that have done that....

Africa needs Jesus. Civilization, law and order, and basic morality will follow.

Much of the world was a lost cause before the gospel was conveyed and began its work of redeeming individuals and their cultures.

When there were Christians in Africa (the Ethiopian Coptic Church) in the First Century, human sacrifice was still being practiced in the British Isles and other places in Europe.

Africa will have its day in the sun when much of the West is under sharia.

May God bless and keep you, watchin, and your dedicated colleagues and may you have some wonderful experiences with African Chrisitians who really know what it is to count the cost.
